ok alot of people gave me a few replys about what the weird whistle was in my car but i though ill upload it and then they can watch it and hear it for them selfs i played with the trotle a bit u can hear it go wen i start to accelerate and the whistle dies down this sounds alot louder than it should be because when the bonnet is closed you obviously cant hear it as much.

Alot of people told me to take it back and i did when i noticed it and he told me they took the engine out and they could not find anything wrong and its not something i should be concerend about but i hate it and i want it to run quiet and smooth like alot of other GT-Rs so watch and give me your feed back.

ps. cars out of warenty now for the rebuild and he f**ked me over the last time i was there so going back is not an option!!!

Yeah from the vid it sounds like more of a squeak than a whistle, most probably what Karl said, poor water on your belts when its running see if it stops for a few seconds.

If it was a whistle noise I'd say it was your intake/induction pipes/exhaust/turbo. If it was a scrape noise like metal on metal inside the engine I'd be worried and taking it back to the rebuilder.

if your think its internal grab a big flat head screw driver, put the handle to your ear and the blade on various engine parts and see where it's coming from.

Good luck :P

mmmm funny you should say that about the belts because at the front i noticed one of the belts is worn on the the side and i looked down with a torch and it looks like it might be hitting a bolt for some reason ill try that water thing tonight and ill tell you what happens to it

Turbo seals etc were replaced not long back pretty sure its not them to me it sounds like its coming from the front but then i cant tell 100% because if you lean in it sounds like its coming from the plenum or like under it near the injectors.

thanks for your help ill keep you guys posted

I am not a guru,

But there sounded like a Knock in the background.....

I thought I could just hear it over the noise of the lifters.....

Possible other issues? Big End Bearing?

As well as Belts slipping

knock ? wtF? i just got it rebuilt car drives fine its peaking on the dyno and its not over boosted it runs fine does not miss a beat its just a noise and thanx for that gay little photo that really helps me mate thanks i dont need stupid immature comments like that im asking for peoples help if you don't want to help go make a thred about being a sad flamin mongrel!

I poured water on the belts its not that thanks guys for that advice but didn't work its coming from under the injectors im going with air leek the car runs 100% tho no problems at all

yea man mmmmmm i will take it just in the spraying process atm trying to get the Bit*ch on the Rd asap but i will take it to someone asap like the cars performance could not be any better i just have it in the back of my mind and a bit concerned about it ah wellz :( have not had much luck with the car and cant see that changing but ill take it to someone in next few weeks n see how i go thanks man

    • Is it possibly wastegate actuator itself is sticking, or even the rod to flapper? Otherwise I reckon things are getting a bit rusty/worn   Also odd it won't boost in 3rd to 5th, but will in 1st, I'd expect the other way around with it slightly open as there's more time on your way to redline for it to spin up
    • Does anyone know ow what these two plugs are for and if they should be unplugged? Just put the dash back together and can't remember if these were plugged in before or unplugged! (Blue and white plugs) 🤦🏽‍♂️
    • Did some FASTing ...got the impression that the actual part# was a moot point ; seems all of these hardlines for coolant are discontinued/NLA... like, I take it you're after the hardline that bolts onto to the manifold...that's NLA according to amayama & nengun .... ...just to clear up some confusion, they typically mounted the AAC valve to the intake manifold somewhere near a coolant passage, so the body of the valve heats up & holds it open when engine's up to temp - no coolant flows through the valve, it's a mechanical, thermal connection.
    • And now the bloody flapper is jammed slightly open. Lazy as all f**k in 3rd-5th (very hard to convince it to make much boost before you run out of revs), but will make 12 psi in 1st, which shouldb't be possible with a 5 psi spring and controller set to <10 psi. Methinks I'm lucky it jammed where it did, rather than fully closed. It's actually a well weird situation. Careful examination of what's happening in the back of that housing when the gearbox comes out and all the other stuff (injectors, AFM retune) is supposed to be done, next week.
